Insurance for Adventure Sports

adventure sports insurance

It is very common that we have customers who want to take part in adventure sports either as an unorganized activity just for the thrill of it, or as an organized event. People travel from different parts of the world to participate in these activities. Whether it is a sports activity for fun and thrill or an organized event, the most important issue to be highlighted is the need fortravel insurance with sports coverage.

There are many organized sports that are held across the globe. Sometimes a number of unexpected events happen even with the most careful planning and preparation. Mainly in the pandemic era, the new Omicron and delta variant of the SAR’s virus is more infectious and players need protection against the unexpected accidents and illness that can occur while travelling outside the home country.

There are various travel/health insurance plans that provide coverage for adventure sports activities but there might be some activities which these plans do not cover. Regardless of the variant, when the insured is contracted the coronavirus illness, covid-19 coverage will be provided to the sportsmen.

Extreme sports travel insurance plans are designed to provide coverage for the extreme sports activities. Travel Insurance plans coverage for sports vary or depends on the destination location and the type of specific adventure sport the person is going to participate in.

Not every travel insurance policy will cover sports and in many cases they will include or exclude the coverage based on sports categories such as organized sports, extreme/adventure sports, contact sports and recreational sports.

  • Organized sports in insurance terms usually include intercollegiate, interscholastic, intramural or club sport participation. If your activity has a coach and is organized by some organization and it needs some training and practice, then it is Organized Sports.

    Coverage for organized sports is not inherent in insurance and is commonly excluded from coverage. But, there are some plans that do cover organized sports.

  • Extreme/Adventure sports known as adventure sports are activities that involve high level of danger and risk. This activities involve speed, height and high level of physical exertion and in most cases a specialized gear.

    Although most travel insurance plans exclude coverage for these extreme sports there are few plans that provide limited coverage or there may be an additional rider for an additional cost.

  • Contact sports are activities where people come in physical contact with each other and recreation sports are usually done in free time and leisure and are covered under regular medical insurance benefits.
